    Default I may cry.


    Scraped the last bit of this out of the tub last night. I'm going to try not to buy any until I use up some of the other software that I have stocked up. It will be difficult because this is my favorite.

    tedh75,
    The Art of Shaving creams are good. I have used most of them and prefer the lavender and the sandalwood. Yet there are other fine creams out there, and I'm sure you have some in your stash, so why not use them? I sometimes choose not to buy something new until finishing the old.

    I haven't really used there soaps much except for the sample pack I got when I first started and I know I didn't know how to really create a lather back then. Anyways I really like the smell of their "unscented" pre shave oil. Its the lavender, black pepper and clove oils that give it the great smell that I love. I am trying to recreate it so I can make a soap and aftershave that smells like it.

    I'm going to try Obie. We'll see how it goes. I'll have a much better shot at using other things up with this gone.

    Not only that, tedh75, but The Art of Shaving will still be around when you finish your other products. This is a Proctor and Gamble company.
    By the way, The Art of Shaving soaps were reformulated a while back. If you can find the older versions, they are excellent.

    Be an optimist.

    Don't cry over the end of this cream; use the opportunity to find a cream that you like better than this one.

    There's a whole world of creams and soaps out there the beckons to be explored...


    And, as Obie said, you can always come back to AOS.

    I haven't ever tried the AOS creams, and I'm not much of a scent guy in general, but I definitely like the Proraso sandalwood soap. Very nice stuff that- cheap too.

    Greetings tedh,

    Could you estimate how many shaves you got out of that? I'm coming back to the US before too long and would like to stock up before coming back overseas for another year and a half to two years. I'm a newbie and don't want to bring back more than I need, but don't want to runout either.

    Thanks!
